Default Problem with back to back recordings in Vista

I am using Vista TV pack with 2x Floppydtv tuners. I had the situation last night where I was recording the following programs:

20.00 Secrets of Egypt on Five (1 hour program set with additional 5 mins padding)

21.00 Real Crime on ITV1

On my previous MCE2005 setup (same tuners) the 2nd prgram would have started recording on time on my 2nd tuner. However in Vista only 1 tuner was used, with the result that the 2nd recording started 5 minutes late (once the program on Five had finished at 21.05) - very frustrating!!!

Has anyone else come across this problem, or know a solution? Not sure if the problem is related to TV Pack, or Vista MCE in general, as I migrated straight to a Vista setup with TV Pack installed.

Thanks

It's a known V Pack thing - I think that recent update fixes it, not sure if it comes down on windows update.

The update was posted here:

Update for Media Center TVPack for Windows Vista (KB957209) available

Yeah, I believe Vista only supported 1 DVB-T tuner originally. But a recent update fixed this. I am new to Vista and I am only talking from what I have read and not experience.
